Abstract
This article identifies the geopolitical imperatives that emphasize the need for the Caribbean to have a bilingual cadre of skilled personnel, but notes that Caribbean students reject language study in droves. It seeks to identify some of the reasons for this situation and provides suggestions for ensuring that the goal of enabling students to leave school after five years with competence in at least one foreign language is achieved
